Bupropion seems to be a great medication in many ways. Scott Siskind wrote about it as being on of the main mediations he uses to treat his patients. One of the side effects of Bupropion can be insomnia. CBD oil is often recommended online as a treatment for insomnia. When searching online, there are suggestions that there might be interactions between the two. What should we think about that interaction. Is it worrisome enough to avoid making the experiment of trying CBD oil when taking bupropion?

Without knowledge of potential interactions, melatonin might be another option - I don't take bupropion, but suspect that one would take daily dose in morning to minimize chance of this side effect as well
